Zebras coach, Peter Butler has returned from what he described as a successful scouting trip to Maun.

In his absence, another Under-20 selection camp was organised at the Lekidi Centre over the weekend.  Players selected from last year’s Botswana Games held in Francistown were invited for the Gaborone camp.  Butler at the time was scouting for talent in Maun.

“No I was not involved in that.  I hear they appointed an interim coach, (but) I will look at those players,” he told Mmegi Sport yesterday.  Butler said he is impressed with the talent he saw in the northwest part of the country. “I was looking for height, speed, skill awareness and commitment.  In general, I was looking for players who I feel can work their way up to contention for national under 20 side,” he said.
